27% of Our Turnover, Given Back

27 Dec 2025
Every year, we ask ourselves a simple question: If openHR exists to dignify work, how do we dignify the world around that work?

This year, the answer was clear.
We donated 27% of our turnover to evidence‑based, high‑impact charities - organisations that don’t just do good, but prove it.

These aren’t feel‑good gestures or vague “awareness” campaigns. They’re interventions with measurable outcomes, audited impact, and transparent results. The kind of work we respect because it mirrors our own philosophy: clarity, accountability, and real‑world effect.

And here’s the part we’re proudest of:
Every rand we donated was powered by you.  
Your trust in openHR - your payrolls, your teams, your businesses - made this possible. You didn’t just use our software. You helped fund upliftment and other interventions that save and improve lives at scale.

In a world where many companies talk about impact, we prefer to document it.

Thank you for being part of this legacy.
Here’s to building systems - and a society - where dignity is the default.
